Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of power device, concretely relates to a composite substrate, epitaxial structure and device, especially relates to a composite substrate, epitaxial structure and device for MOSFET. BACKGROUND

[0002] Silicon carbide is a kind of wide band gap semiconductor material, and the device made of silicon carbide substrate has the advantages of high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, high frequency, high power, radiation resistance and high efficiency, and has important application value in the field of radio frequency, new energy automobile and the like.

[0003] At present, in 750V MOSFET, the drift region thickness is only 6-8 μm, and the substrate will contribute up to 17% of the total resistance of the device. When the traditional single crystal SiC substrate is grown by seed sublimation, there is a basic trade-off between crystal quality (low defect density) and doping density (low resistivity). Since the substrate is the basis for subsequent epitaxial growth, the quality of the substrate cannot be affected, so its resistance is relatively high (usually 15-25 mOhm-cm). The limited doping density of the substrate also increases the small contact resistance (Rc) between the substrate and the drain. On the contrary, when producing polycrystalline silicon carbide substrates, the defect density is not important, so the doping density can be pushed to the limit, thereby minimizing its resistance.

[0004] Therefore, by processing a high-quality silicon carbide single crystal substrate, bonding the processed surface to a low-resistance polycrystalline silicon carbide wafer as a supporting substrate, not only can reduce the cost, but also can reduce the on-resistance and provide device performance.
